From left to right:
ormaline, sptitsa, rawie, chulikula, halico, gi, chirm and emporer


ormaline
The ormaline is a reptilian race and is the second most common race of Mundorbis after the halico. They're often stereotyped as dumb, lazy hillbillies or backstabbing forest dwellers by many of the ones living in the higher class because there are very few ormalines in the higher ups. One of their greatest pleasures in life is basking in the sun, which they do fairly often, which is why they're often seen as lazy. They can barely handle cold at all and usually get sleepy and sluggish when their body temperature goes down, just like that of a "regular" reptile's, and if their body temperature gets too low, they can enter a coma and die. 

sptitsa
The sptitsa is a very elusive and mysterious creature, living in the depths of the forests of Amanuk. It is said that their feathers possess great healing properties, which is why the rawies constantly try to hunt them, but they always fail because the sptitsa rarely ever leaves Amanuk, which is an incredibly dense rain forest full of shit like venomous animals and angry tribes of native ormalines. The sptitsas also make very good herb tea and spices they often sell to the Temples, which then sells it to the rest of the world. Sptitsa tea and herbs is usually extra expensive because it more often than not contains rare plants only the sptitsa somehow know where to get. The sptitsa is also the third rarest race of Mundorbis after the chulikula and the emporer.

rawie
The rawies are the physically strongest and most violent race of Mundrbis. They are the third most common race after the halicos and the ormalines, and they're infamous warmongers and troublemakers. They hunt chirms because the chirm hunt deer for survival, but because the rawies view the deer, elk, moose etc. as sacred spirits of the forest because they grow horns and the rawies don't, they see the chirm as sinners that need to be removed from this world. As the crim usually carry the antlers of their kills in their belts for hunting luck, the rawies collect these antlers as trophies and make large ceremonial antler crowns. The more antlers of the crown, the more respected the rawie is.

chulikula
The chulikula is the second rarest race of Mundorbis after the emporer. Nobody barely ever see them, and they live in large tribes in the densest parts of the Amanuk. They are incredibly social creatures, they may even die of a broken heart if separated from their tribe, but they are very weary of strangers. These creatures are incredibly isolated and not nearly as advanced as the other races because they live in such an isolation. There are some tribes living in ancient, abandoned temples deep in the forest too, and they are sometimes thought to be spirits guarding these sacred places.

halico
The most common and main race of Mundorbis, the halicos are diverse and spread all over the realm. They are more often than not cherished for their highly innovative and intelligent minds, and much of the main art, cathedrals and monuments were sonstructed and built by halicos. They are the most commonly found race in the upper classes and are usually seen as snobs and egocentric asshats by many of the other races of Mundorbis.

gi
The gi are nearly as elusive and mysterious as the sptitsas, but they don't hide in the forests as much. They live mostly in the Temples and work as healers, oracles, shamans and gardeners. Their unique sensitivity to pheromones, energies and subtle movements give them an incredible advantage when it comes to communicating with spirits and the body. 

chirm
The chirm live mostly up in the north and have conquered the archipelago and large islands of Mundorbis to avoid the rawies. They also have the support of EOTT in case the rawies decide to fight the chirm in a grand war. The chirm still living in the mountains and forests where they live side by side with their arch nemesis have learned how to become the most alert and stealthiest race in the realm, which makes them some of the best hunters and assassins available on the market. The chirm are the fourth most common race in the realm after the rawies, ormalines and halicos. They're generally seen as cowardly and suspicious, but not much else is really thought of them.

emporer
The emporer is the most respected race in Mundorbis, as they possess great power in their khotet (basically magic/mana) already from birth. Wielding this power is just as natural for them as being able to talk or move, which makes them a great ally to have and a horrible enemy to face. There are only a few hundred of them in the realm, but they're not facing extinction. There has never been more than 200 of them at a time in the realm as long as anyone can remember, and it is unknown how they reproduce. They are usually found around monasteries, churches and temples, and it's not uncommon for them to be of a higher status, such as emperor, pope, monk or such. It's common for them to work with one or more individuals of the gi race.

art and concept is mine, dun steal plsssss

The rawie are my favorite, I have a soft spot for deer people.
Their zealous religion of genociding the deer hunting chirm is fascinating!
